A Mama's Joy

Excuse me a second, while I scream for joy inside! AhhhAhhAhhh!! Oh my, I just witnessed my precious Micro ride on his two-wheeler for a total of 10 seconds all by himself! (With a little help from this proud Mama.) This was only his second time on his bike (the one Santa gave to him ;) and after 7 minutes of me aiding him from holding slightly onto his seat, once he got his balance, I let go, and off he went. Watching for those precious few seconds as I saw my little boy ride a bike for the first time, my heart swelled. Granted, it was only a few seconds, and he did it a few more times, each only lasting about 10-15 seconds of total, and utmost freedom. It was only then he started to get nervous and lose balance when he realized Mama wasn't near him anymore. But, as most you, Mamas, know it's quite exciting and proud to see your child accomplish these milestones. Of course I'm a bit sad that Mr. Fliz was not on site to see it happen. However, I'm sure there will be plenty of special moments those two will share. Besides, today was only the start of Micro's biking career.

As soon as I can, I will post a quick video of him biking. This just reminds me of when I first taught him to ride his tricycle. 

Micro, I am so proud of your perseverance and athleticism. Keep it up my baby boy!


UPDATE: This evening Micro rode his bike unassisted for a minute or two all by himself. Mr. Fliz was fortunately there to see it happen and he even got off his bike all by himself too. Proud moments. Videos to be uploaded soon!
